Flowers

Here are some pictures of flower arrangements my friend Marja made for the 40 years celebration of Vanhusten kotiapu ry. (a foundation offering domestic help to senior citizens).

Regal clothing - colours and materials

                      

Here are few pics of the materials, I will use for the regal cloths, the colours and patterns are going to be something like that.

The prince is going to look something like this.

Middle Ages fachion

 

Some costumes for our next play. 

A new project

It is time to start summer theatre project. It seems to be Decamerone. And I am going to be the dressmaker. I'm going to do clothig from the Middle Ages. I'm loving that.

                                           Our stage on 4.4.2012


It's going to look quite different in the first night. But don't believe me, come to see yourself.

Autumn time

It shows the beautiful dark night sky.

The moon, the stars and the planets, beauty of the universe.

And still they say that there is no life there. What a silly thing to say.

If there is no life in the other parts of the universe, how lonely we are....

Good night, sleep tight.

Summer theater

Next summer I will be in summer theater in Kulosaari. The play will be "Matinea rakkaille vainajille" by Joel Elstelä.

The play is wonderfull, I do love it.

Come to see us 2th of July. After the first night there will be performances on every wednesday, thursday, saturday and sunday, the last one is on 31st of July.

Working, working, working.....

So much work to do....

Have no time to write....

Maybe next time.....

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all

Radio

At the moment I am listening Radio Helsinki. Dj Fiskars and friends. The music is quite good. I have listened every now and then dj Fiskars and I must say I do like most of the music he is playing.

Now the music is picked by some of hes friends. And it sounds ok too. So I do have two favourite dj:s Fiskars and Fiona Timantti.

They play very different kind of music, so thats why they are both my top favourites.

They are both worth of listening.

Good night, sleep tight.

Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful.....

The sun is shining and painting the pine trees golden. And in the evening it so dark that the candle light looks bright. All this means that the autumn is here. Colourful trees, hard winds, rain.... And I must say I like autumn time. Sitting in your easy chair with a good book, siping something good, maybe a little chocolate, candle light... what an enjoyment.

A friend of mine visited in Egypt and brought to me as a souvenier  two little bottles of perfume. As you can see the bottles are really beautiful ones. The orange is for night and the green one is for daytime. They are like the sunset and sunrise. Aren't they?





Now it is time to go and study a little, so farewell for now.

Plumbing, plumbing, plumbing.....

I have to move. In our house the water pipes are so old that they must be replaced. And the residents must move to an other apartment till the renovation is over. O, Lord. It's a mess.

But nine weeks is a short time. So soon we, me and my cats, will be back home again.

Maybe, when all the packing and moving is done, I will invite my friends to a housewarming party, and we will have fun. Hmmm, that sounds like a good idea.

Till then good night, sleep tight.

New relatives

I have found at least three new relatives in a short time. The family reunion is coming closer and I have wrote about it in my genealogy blog.

And now I have few more relatives, relatives who were unknown to me before.

Our family tree is growing bigger and bigger....

It is over now....

The way to the stage

The summer season is over. The play has ended. I feel melancholic, this was a good summer. And the play was fantastic. Yes it really was. And I did like my role because I hade to do work with it. It was not an old servant ore an old maid, who has nothing else to do but gossip. I had to think what I was doing and why and which way.

But now it's over.

Here are few photos, they are full of feelings and with them I want to thank all of you for making this summer a good one...

Good bye to beard

This was our backstage

Now it's over, cheers

The family reunion

Three years has past and it is time to meet the whole "clan" again. My mothers side of the family has a meeting every three years. This year the meeting is in the end of august.

I am waiting the meeting because I like to get acquainted with new people especially new relatives. I hope as many as possible will come to the meeting.

The old community hall of Leppäkorpi

The meeting takes place in Nummi-Pusula municipal, in the village of Leppäkorpi. There is an old community hall. Our ancesters have been bilding that hall, and that is why we are now meeting there.

Now I must write a column for the magazine of the family so I can send the paper to the print and we can send it to our familymembers.

So good night, sleep tight....

It's over!

The premiere is over. And I feel empty. But it is good emptiness. A bit tired, a bit relieved, and much humble and grateful all mixed together.

I am honoured to be member of this group of actors. We are no professionals, but we are dam good.

Now I go to bed and dream good dreams abut our upcoming performances. May they be as good as this first one.

Our director Joel Elstelä

The first night

Here is a picture of our curtain. Gorgeous don't you think. And the play is funny, but still, it awakes you thoughts if you let it do so....

You all are welcome to see us tomorrow. Now I have to hurry. My dress is not yet ready, so I must sew it a litlle bit more.....

I hope I see you all tomorrow.

Too hot.....

Can it be too hot? Yes it can. I do not like temperature over +25 degrees celcius. I cannot sleep at night and then I'm in bad mood on daytime. And I don't like to be on bad mood! I know I wrote that I hope the summer will be sunny and warm. But hey! Too much is too much.


Most of all I am very worried  about my cats. They are 20 years old, and this heat might be too much for them. They are sleeping almost all the time. They are not eating properly, I hope they drink enough.


Useally when I come home in the evening they are waiting for me in the hallway, but now the don't have enough strength to raise their heads and say hello to me.


In theatre Beowulf we are having the last rehearsals before the first night, we are doing our best, and hope it is enough. The premiere is in next wednesday evening at 7 o'clock. So you all are welcome to see our performance.


And I hope you'll like it. I do like the play, its new so our performance is a debut.

Now I have to go to bed, I'm afraid its useless, but I must try to get some sleep, even though it is too hot to sleep.


So good night, sleep tight.

Summer is here

I'm not very summer-like person, but must say that it has been beautiful weather in the last few days.

There is a picture of a little violet. It was blossoming in the old graveyard in Nummi. It shows how magnificent power life is. It comes through the grey stone in the place where the death lives.

Though I have always been fond of cemeteries, especially old ones. And the old cemetery of Nummi is one of my favourite places. It is so beautiful and quiet. And the old tombstones, the oldest are from the end of 19th century, old grey stones, rouhg like life itself.

When I was a litlle girl, I used to wisit there with my parents, my grandparents are buried there. When mother and father was taking care of the flowers and everything I used to walk between those old stones, touching them, trying to read the old names and dates. And I saw the people in my mind and I tryid to imagine the life they have had. I have always had a good imagination. So they were very living to me.

By the way, my weight has not gone down as fast as I hoped. And now I have decided to take in use hard way. I have made a soup, colesoup, and I'm going to eat it the whole week. Lets see what happens.

As times go by

It's been ages I last wrote this blog. The shcool is almost over from this spring. Only one exam and then its over. Still one year to go but it starts only in autumn so there is summer and freedom between....

And once again it's late night and I'm sitting by my computer and writing. This time it is family recearch. It is so interesting I don't want to quit but I'm afraid I have to because tomorrow is a workday. But have few ancesters still to check....

Today has been quite nice. I was in rehearsals in a summer theatre. The name of the play is "Good evening, my name is Anton Tsehov" and it is quite funny. I do like all the actors and of cource the director too. The place we are playing is an open air playhouse so I hope this summer will be sunny and warm.

At school

Waiting for my friends. Sitting in classroom writing this blog and thinking what to do. Time to do what I want. And I don't want to do anything reasonable.

I think I'm going to write my fantasy story. Actually I'm not yet ready to go on with it. I have to do some research first about healing with stones and jewelery and colours and chakras. But I can write some descriptions of persons and places and so on.
